The North and South Mountains frame the basin of the Annapolis River, which exits swiftly through the narrow Digby Gut to the Bay of Fundy. The bedrock geology of the North Mountain is basalt, while the South 4909000.000 4909000.000 Kejimkujik National Park Mountain is generally granite. Once very likely majestic, the "mountains" were ground down over the and National Historic Site ages by ice sheets and erosion, leaving the postcard vistas you may see today while paddling its shores. Black Rattle JOINS MAP 6 Before the arrival of the first European explorers, the Annapolis River and Basin served as an important resource to the Mi'kmaw community for millennia. They occupied many sites around the Basin, hunting porpoise, harvesting shellfish, eels, fish and game. The Mi'kmaq called the river Teoôpsig S (flowing out between rocks).The French called it the Rivière Dauphin. qu a re 4908000.000 C 4908000.000 a m p The advantages of the Basin's large natural harbour was noted by the French, who arrived in B r oo k M 1605 and promptly established the Habitation on the north shore at Port Royale. The early Acadian e r settlers built an impressive and unique series of dykes along the natural marshes to hold back the high se y tides, and established an extensive agricultural economy. After 400 years, many of those dykes still R i v e remain, maintained by local farmers who continue to farm the reclaimed land. r Through the 1600's, the intrigues of European and New World politics created much strife in the 4907000.000 4907000.000 Annapolis Basin area, which was contested in turn by British and French forces, their First Nations allies, and American privateers. In 1710, Port Royal fell a last time to the British and was renamed Annapolis Royal, in honour of Queen Anne. For the paddler, the Annapolis Basin offers a large expanse of navigable water, relatively protected from the high winds and waves of the Bay of Fundy, but nonetheless still affected by them. The Pes ko we Basin's extreme tides and strong currents can be a challenge in many sections, and common sense with sk B 18 ro respect to weather and tide conditions must be considered. Particular caution must be taken with the 4906000.000 o 6 4906000.000 k current at the Tidal Power Station in Annapolis Royal (see Route 19, Map 10), and with the current, tide and wind at Digby Gut (the tide flows through the Gut at approximately 6 knots), the north channel at Goat Island and the south channel at Bear Island. Tenting is available at commercial campgrounds where noted on the map. There is an informal tent site on Goat Island, at the beach on the north end of the island. Public washrooms are available in Annapolis Royal at Fort Anne, Kings Theatre, and the Tidal Power Station. Washrooms and showers are 4905000.000 4905000.000 available in Digby at the Heritage Centre, just up the street from the marina. Food and refreshments can be found near Entry/Exit points at various businesses in Annapolis Royal, Digby and Cornwallis Park.

Mossman2 127 Harding Avenue, Amherst, Nova Scotia B4H 2A8, Canada departm ent of Physics, Engineering and Geoscience, Mount Allison University, 67 York Street, Sackville, New Brunswick E4L 1E6, Canada Date Received April 27, 1998 Date Accepted December 15,1998 Vigorous quasi-equilibrium conditions characterize interactions between land and sea in macrotidal regions. Ephemeral on the scale of geologic time, estuaries around the Bay of Fundy progressively infill with sediments as eustatic sea level rises, forcing fringing salt marshes to form and reform at successively higher levels. Although closely linked to a regime of tides with large amplitude and strong tidal currents, salt marshes near the Bay of Fundy rarely experience overflow. Built up to a level about 1.2 m lower than the highest astronomical tide, only very large tides are able to cover the marshes with a significant depth of water. Peak tides arrive in sets at periods of 7 months, 4.53 years and 18.03 years. Consequently, for months on end, no tidal flooding of the marshes occurs. Most salt marshes are raised to the level of the average tide of the 18-year cycle. The number of tides that can exceed a certain elevation in any given year depends on whether the three main tide-generating factors peak at the same time. Marigrams constructed for the Shubenacadie and Cornwallis river estuaries, Nova Scotia, illustrate how the estuarine tidal wave is reshaped over its course, to form bores, and varies in its sediment-carrying and erosional capacity as a result of changing water-surface gradients.

  • Annapolis Basin Bay of Fundy Estuary Profile Annapolis Basin
    Bay of Fundy Estuary Profiles Annapolis Basin Bay of Fundy Estuary Profile Annapolis Basin The Annapolis Basin is a sub-basin of the Bay of Fundy along the northwestern shore of Nova Scotia and at the western end of the Annapolis Valley. The Annapolis River is the major water source flowing into the estuary. At the NB mouth of the estuary, a narrow channel known as the Digby Gut connects the 44 NS estuary to the Bay of Fundy. Annapolis Royal and Digby are the main communities along the shore of the estuary, and Kingston-Greenwood is within the catchment area. Near Digby, there is a ferry port that connects to Saint John, New Brunswick. The estuary also hosts a tidal power generating station, which is near Annapolis Royal. The economy within the catchment area is largely driven by agriculture. However, Estuary surface area 104.07 km2 there are also several shellfish and finfish aquaculture tenures, and some Width at estuary mouth 1.85 km commercial fisheries near the mouth of the estuary that largely target Shoreline length 200.63 km invertebrates such as crab, lobster, and clams that inhabit tidal mudflats.

  • Wampanoag, Tribespeople “Of the Dawn”
    THE WAMPANOAG, TRIBESPEOPLE “OF THE DAWN” “Ye see, Hinnissy, th’ Indyun is bound f’r to give way to th’ onward march iv white civilization. You ’an me, Hinnissy, is th’ white civilization... The’ on’y hope f’r th’ Indyun is to put his house on rollers, an’ keep a team hitched to it, an’, whin he sees a white man, to start f’r th’ settin’ sun.” — Finley Peter Dunne, OBSERVATIONS BY MR. DOOLEY, New York, 1902 HDT WHAT? INDEX WAMPANOAG WAMPANOAG When the English settlements first commenced in New England, that part of its territory, which lies south of New Hampshire, was inhabited by five principal nations of Indians: the Pequots, who lived in Connecticut; the Narragansets, in Rhode Island; the Pawkunnawkuts, or Womponoags, east of the Narragansets and to the north as far as Charles river;1 the Massachusetts, north of Charles river and west of Massachusetts Bay; and the Pawtuckets, north of the Massachusetts. The boundaries and rights of these nations appear not to have been sufficiently definite to be now clearly known. They had within their jurisdiction many subordinate tribes, governed by sachems, or sagamores, subject, in some respects, to the principal sachem. At the commencement of the seventeenth century, they were able to bring into the field more than 18,000 warriors; but about the year 1612, they were visited with a pestilential disease, whose horrible ravages reduced their number to about 1800.2 Some of their villages were entirely depopulated. This great mortality was viewed by the first Pilgrims, as the accomplishment of one of the purposes of Divine Providence, by making room for the settlement of civilized man, and by preparing a peaceful asylum for the persecuted Christians of the old world.

In January 2008, the Province of Nova Scotia announced that Minas Basin Pulp and Power Co Ltd. had been awarded the opportunity to construct a tidal energy testing and research facility in the Minas Basin, known as the Fundy Tidal Energy Demonstration Facility. This Facility will be managed by a non-profit corporation called FORCE. The objectives of this study are twofold; - to undertake a broad MEKS study for the Bay of Fundy Phase I Area as it may relate to future renewable energy projects i.e. wind, tidal and wave, specifically in Phase 1 area of the Bay of Fundy ( as identified in MGC Proposal - Minas Channel and Minas Basin), and - to undertake a more focused MEKS review specific to the Fundy Tidal Energy Demonstration Project area which would consider the land and water area potentially affected by the project, identify what is the Mi’kmaq traditional use activity that has or is currently taking place within the Project Site and Study Area and what Mi’kmaq ecological knowledge presently exists in regards to the Project Site and Study Area.
